maddysmommy I don't own one but have been tempted to buy one. I work 'on call' at Macys and sometimes they have really good deals, but I can't bring myself to buying one... I have my cheap $24 dollar purse from Nine West that I bought on sale and it suits me fine for now...

Do The Reputations On Mylot Matter Any More?

Rozie37 @Rozie37 (15499) • Turkmenistan 3 Apr 09

My reputation has been the same for about a year now and I was just wondering whether or not it should have went up or down. Does yours still change from time to time?

What happened to the person who broke your heart?

laydee @laydee (12798) • Philippines 23 Mar 09

Did he get what he/she deserved? Did you meet him/her after a few years? If not, would you want to meet him/her? Have you completely recovered now? How long did it take you to recover?
